    I don't get why the Blazers draft players who've been injured? Gosh this team is management by complete incompetent idiots.

    Dumbasses shouldn't draft someone who's had a broken bone, it could break again. Or if the players has had knee pain, it normally leads to an early retirement. Hamstring injuries reoccur, they shouldn't draft those players. Or an earache, yes the Rose Garden can get really loud.

    Fifty six days... so roughly two months? He could be playing by mid-season, no?

    Fucking Vulcans. Why are they using a non-operative ultrasound? PA is a billionaire, this is no time to scrimp on medical equipment. Get an operative one.

    I don't think the Blazers should draft a player with a history of headaches. Loud noise and flashing lights not good. Or stomach ache. Every tasted arena food? For that matter, why draft humans at all with their fragile bodies? Can't the Vulcans come up with some good androids? Or at least Vulcans? Mr. Spock and Data on the Blazers?

    So, no waving chicken feathers and burning incense? Why do the Blazers want another hurricane to strike Haiti?

    Perhaps this is a blessing in disguise........More playing time and a chance for Allen Crabbe to show what he can do? .

    If a player has serious headache/migraine issues, I wouldn't want to draft them. Percy Harvin has missed huge amounts of time with migraines. Drafting a player with health problems that aren't even injuries is retarded.

    Dame was injured too in college. For a whole season. I don't see you complaining about that pick.

    Portland guard CJ McCollum successfully underwent a non-operative ultrasound procedure today to repair the fifth metatarsal fracture in his left foot. The procedure, which is designed to promote bone growth, was performed at the OrthoCarolina Foot and Ankle Institute in Charlotte, North Carolina by Dr. Robert Anderson.
    McCollum will remain sidelined indefinitely and will be reevaluated in six weeks.
